      Only one of them wants to actively kill my queer friends, so yeah, it matters.

      it matters. one is an accelerationist the other is a conservative of the status quo. neither are going to improve anything but one will try his most to destroy any confidence.

      It matters hugely even internationally. If you’re female it would I’m guessing based on the fact that want to ban abortions. As a guy, I wouldn’t want to be forced to be stuck with a kid.

      Are you not paying attention? I’m Australian, and the difference is totally night and day.

        And as a human being, I wouldn’t really want to support a zionazi that’s funding a genocide.

          I can’t speak for that.

          But sure…

          • The rapist who is VERY clear about wanting to be a dictator, is EXACTLY the same as the other guy.
          • The rapist with over 30500 known public lies in 4 years… Yeah… Definitely the same.
          • The guy who loves other dictators who support genocides? Obviously the same
          • Oh, yeah, lets not forget about the guy who killed hundreds of thousands of american’s, and even more worldwide through misinformation during covid. Here in Australia, there are STILL people who were influenced by people like him.
          • Also, I forgot about the guy who tried to overthrow the election (and it was obvious leading up to it)
          • Lets also not forget about the guy who when found guilty in court is considered so mafia-esque, that the judge told jurors that he STRONGLY recommended people didn’t disclose they were on the jury
          • This “businessman” cycles through more lawyers than a supreme court, and his own lawyers say they can’t control him.
          • The guy who likely compromised the security of millions of US, Australian and other soldiers by taking classified documents for his own benefit

          Joe Biden? When his son was found guilty, he let justice take course.

          It would be good to see Michelle Obama stand though instead of him, but, Trump is VERY dangerous. He was willing to start a civil war to get back power, and the only reason he hasn’t gotten into any wars, is because he is likely giving other dictators everything they want (including top secret information)

          The only reason we know 100% that he is giving away top secret information, is because of audio recordings, and a billionaire in Australia said directly that was the case.

          Joe Biden has done none of that stuff. The judge didn’t need to warn jurors on his son’s trial that they could be targeted if they diclosed they were on it

      Geopolitics is actually one of those examples where it does matter quite a lot. All the planning world leaders does gets thrown out the window when someone new comes on to the stage. For example I don’t think anyone could have predicted America being nice to NK under Trump.

        For the first one, it’d be great if the US actually let NATO destroy itself, but that’s just rhetoric to get Russia to ally with the US against China; like they allied with China against the USSR in the Cold War. Unfortunately the US would never truly antagonize NATO; Trump would just be assassinated and replaced like JFK was for wanting to abolish the CIA.

        For the second… you’re currently watching a zionazi president bypassing congress to hasten the Palestinian genocide.

        Biden? I think committing a fucking genocide against a native population (even bypassing congress to do so) and supporting a fascist government is “becoming more and more fascist” enough.

        The two-party system is just the two sides of the US’s imperialism coin. Anyone elected through it showing even the slightest hint of anti-imperialist sentiment (like JFK for wanting to abolish the CIA and giving an anti-colonial speech) is gotten rid of and replaced.

        Like all capitalist political systems, it is specifically designed to prevent leftward movement; that can only happen by organizing outside the system.
